Quiver Inn # 601-1

Big Snow Country offers its guests a lot! Not only are there several ski areas

within a short drive, but there are several other winter activities that can

be enjoyed by the entire family.

• Besides Big Powderhorn, you can ski two other Big Snow Country resorts -
• Blackjack and Indianhead. Both of these resorts are just a short drive (5 miles)
• east of us on US2. A third option - Whitecap is just 19 miles west of here.
  
  
• We have an outdoor ice skating rink located across the street from the lodging
• office. It is illuminated for night time skating but you will need to bring your
• own skates since there aren't any rentals available.
  
  
• Horse drawn sleigh rides depart from Winterwind Farms about 5 miles
• west of Big Powderhorn. They offer a truly memorable ride through their own
• woodland trails.
  
  
• Snow Tubing is available during the evenings at Mt. Zion in Ironwood.
  
  
• Cross country skiing offers many choices in our area, some of the more popular
• being the Wolverine Nordic trails which run across the top of our hill and
• the extensive ABR trail system which is just 15 minutes away in Ironwood.
  
  
• Snowshoers can enjoy exploring special trails at either the Wolverine or ABR
• trail systems or they can walk part of the North Country Trail which winds
• past several waterfalls along the wild and scenic Black River.
  
  
• Snowmobilers have made our region a destination for decades. With lots of
• snow and groomed trail systems that seem to go on forever, you can ride to
• your heart's content. Take a look at our
• Visitor's Bureau snowmobiling info and see for yourself.
  
  
• There are many more things to do in our area. If you are looking for
• something specific or just hoping for ideas, stop in at our information desk
• and we will do our best to help. A trip to our local Visitor's Bureau website.
